Very amazing. This has inspired me to make my own music. And it is decent. I would give this 1,00,000,000,000.0 stars
United StatesThe Four Seasons
The Four Seasons is one of my favorite pieces of music, and it’s my favorite Baroque piece
United StatesAmazing Experience!!!!!
So far I would say that this is the BEST App ever made! I don’t mind the Original Version, but to me, Max Richter’s Recomposed Version is SPOT ON! It’s too bad that I have to buy the Sheet Music for this recomposed piece, but I can still listen to each of the instruments.
United StatesUnique combination of experience & critical engagement
This is a rich resource that brings a lot of pleasure from listening to the music to hearing scholars ruminate about the history and configuration of the music. Worth every penny
United StatesCould have been much better
Compared to the 9th Symphony Beethoven app, this app has more flaws which could be corrected with an update if Touchpress would do so. Although stated in the credits and sources, the reference score used in the app is NOT the one used in the recording - if only TP provided both versions then it would have been better. At many times, the animated players view (showing which chair is actively playing) is wrong and sync between the score can vary because of the adlibs done in the recorded vesion. The so-called reimagining of the four seasons is forgettable but worth a listen or two. It doesn't bring/add much as it feels like a bad imitation of the original instead.of what it was intended. If this is your first TP app for music analysis, go for the beethoven version first
United StatesPerfect!
If you love the Four Seasons, this is a MUST have app. Phenomenal!
United StatesWhat??? Get rid of Max Richter's junk.
Max Richter's "recompose" has no place here, at all. It is not a bad piece of music, but it does not help learn or appreciate Four Seasons in any way. It is purely modern and overly synthesized. The fact that it is half the app is ridiculous. This cheap pet trick is not worthy of serious, or other, study. Instead, how about replace it with an original composition, using the baroque instruments, and one with contemporary instrument composition. Then you could get an real better understanding of the music and how it has evolved with the changing face of symphonic composition. Couldn't give it fewer stars, because it is one of the greatest and most popular pieces of music ever written.
